> BEIJING (Reuters) -
>
> Chinese officials have stated that they are holding the United States,
> "fully responsible" for today's mid-air collision, involving several
Chinese
>
> aircraft and one American craft. This comes just weeks after a similar
> incident involving a U.S. spy plane.
>
> Officials have stated that at approximately 8:25 a.m., GMT, a
> squadron of Chinese F-8 fighters collided with the American Goodyear
> Blimp. The crash left over a dozen Chinese planes downed and the
> blimp's electronic billboard damaged. Sources say the billboard's
> scrolling marquee had been advertising 7-UP soft drink, and now only
> leaving the line "Up yours" in view.
>
> A Chinese pilot who witnessed the collision between his squadron,
> nicknamed, "Panda Rash" told China's Xinhua news agency that he saw
> the American blimp dive out of the clouds and into wingman Sum Yung
> Phucker's F-8 jet.
>
> "I told Yaun Wing Lo his tail was all broken. Keep it straight. Keep
> it straight," said the pilot. "He just couldn't shake the American
> foreign-devil." The blimp then reportedly veered hard left and then
> right, taking out the rest of the squadron.
>
> Pilot Chawp Suey Wussy told Xinhua the American blimp was "fully
> responsible for the incident," repeating the language Beijing has
> used in the earlier incident.
>
> China blames this new accident on the Goodyear blimp, saying it
> rammed the supersonic fighters, and has demanded an apology.
> Officials from the Goodyear Company have said it is unlikely that the
> slow propeller-driven blimp could turn inside and ram a dozen nimble
> fighters, unless the Chinese were testing chimp pilots.
>
> "The direct cause of the collision was that the American blimp made a
> sudden big move toward the Chinese planes, making it impossible for
> the Chinese planes to get out of the way," Suey Wussy was quoted as
> saying. "The savage act of American blimps colliding with Chinese
> planes while conducting spying activities at sporting events makes us
> indignant," he was quoted as saying.
>
> Chinese officials are calling for an apology from the United States
> and, seriously, enough Goodyear tires to replace the Firestone's that
> experienced spontaneous combustion last year. U.S. officials
> expressed regret, but would not allow an apology until the matter
> could be investigated further.
>
> In a related story Goodyear has not commented on whether it has
> stopped shipments of condoms to China as a retaliatory measure.
